Technical Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, conductive features on the substrate, and a passivation layer over the conductive features to define conductive pads in the respective conductive features through exposed portions of each of the conductive features. Each corner of the conductive pads is free of right angle, the substrate has a pair of long sides from a top view perspective, the shape of each of the conductive pads is a parallelogram. Each of the conductive pads has a pair of long sides and a pair of short sides from a top view perspective, a portion of the conductive pads have the long sides sloped away from a first pad density area of the substrate and toward one long side of the substrate, and the rest of the conductive pads have the long sides sloped toward the first pad density area and toward the other long side of the substrate.
